Saimyo Temple Religious Institution
Saimyo Temple Religious Institution
Saimyo Temple is a religious building located on the grounds of a temple in Kurashiki City, Okayama Prefecture, Japan. The design emphasizes horizontal lines. Two roofs of different heights give the structure a sense of height and volume. A gently sloping roof keeps the building lower than the main temple. The roof is made of galvanized steel rather than traditional tiles. Deep eaves shade the interior and protect the walls from rain. A spacious glass enclosed room offers open views and a quiet place for prayer and meditation.
